Setting parameters for PuT interlining matrices

General settings section

Element

Description

Return only active stop points

If this option has been selected, the dimensions of the output matrices are reduced to only active stop points.

Return only terminal stop points of the TSys

If this option has been selected, the dimensions of the output matrices are reduced to only those stop points that are either the start or the end of a vehicle journey section of the transport system.

Use system routes

If this option has been selected, the route choice will only find system routes.

Route choice section

Element

Description

Route search criterion

In the drop-down list, you can select the route search criterion.

The following criteria are provided.

Time

Path with shortest TSys travel time in network

Distance

Path with shortest TSys length in network

AddValue 1, 2, 3

Path with minimum AddValue total calculated from the traversed links

AddVal_TSys

Path with minimum TSys-AddValue total calculated from the traversed links

Links/Turns have to be permitted for TSys

If this option has been selected, the shortest paths found do not traverse links or turns or main turns that are not open to this transport system.

Note

This option is only relevant if option Use system routes has not been selected.

Skims section

Element

Description

Calculate and save to file

If the option has been selected, the respective skim matrix is calculated and, with the specific file extension, saved in the selected directory.

Tip

You can check or uncheck all rows in this column at once: In the column header, right click to call the context menu and click either Activate column or Deactivate column.

Skim

List of skims provided for interlining trips by transport system. Each output matrix stores the skim value of the best path per relation between selected stop points.

t-PuTSys

Total link run time of the transport system in [s]

v-PuTSys

Speed of the transport system in the network

Distance

Total length of the traversed links (in-vehicle distance)

Direct distance

Direct distance between the two stop points

AddValue 1, 2, 3

Total of the particular AddValue of the traversed links

AddValue_TSys

Total of the TSys-AddValue of the traversed links

Ext.

The skim-specific file extension is added automatically to the uniform matrix file name. It is used for the identification of the skim whose values are stored in the output matrix.

Note

Please note that renaming a file extension may cause identification problems, since the manual and PTV Vision Support refer to standard file extensions.

Default

Default entry if no path can be found for a relation between stop points.

Min. value

Default entry if the calculated skim value goes below the Min. value for a relation between stop points

Max. value

Default entry if the calculated skim value exceeds the Max. value for a relation between stop points.

Dec.

Number of decimal places in the matrix

Value for diagonal

Default value for the diagonal

Output file section

Element

Description

File name

Via the button, you can enter or select the file name (and path, if applicable) for the matrices of interlining trips.

Note

The specific file extension is added automatically.

Format

In the list, click a format for output files (Matrix formats).

Confirm overwriting

If this option has been selected, a query will appear if files with identical path and name shall be overwritten.
